When satisfied , retract the cutting tool and wind the saddle away from the headstock, then wind
the cutting tool up to the work somewhere along the length to be cut whil e rotating the work
by hand using the chuck.
Continue to advance the cutting tool slowly,
until it just touches the surface. Record this
position by zeroing the scale on the cross-
slide, i.e. turn the moveable scale until the
tool is a short distance from the right hand
edge of the
wor . n in the cross-slide
again one full turn until the zero marks again
coincide.
lMPORTANT:
lf you go past the zero marks ,
back off again at least one half of a turn, then slowly bring the marks back together.
Whenever you use the scale as an indicator to advance the cross-slide or compound slide
,
ALWAYS use this procedure to alig n the marks. This is to take into a ccount backlash and
other clearances in the gearing and slides , etc.
Continue to turn the handle an amount equivalent to your desired depth of cut.
NOTE: We recommend that for rough cutting, you do not exceed 0.010" (0.25mm) as
